00:00This season on Project Runway.
00:04I'm back!
00:07Your look walk out.
00:08I was like, the cervix is dilated and she's crowning.
00:12No tea, no shade, no pink lemonade.
00:15It's fashion's fiercest competition.
00:18You have to bring it.
00:19It really is pushing the boundaries of fashion.
00:22She's badass and flirty at the same time.
00:25This is special.
00:27You have done something that a lot of people cannot do.
00:31And that is to shut me up.
00:33With designers that will stop at nothing to win.
00:37You're the most untalented designer.
00:41Done.
00:42Shut up.
00:43Oh shit.
00:44We're in fashion, it's supposed to be competitive.
00:45I'm gonna fight to be here.
00:46She is drama.
00:48It's gonna be cutthroat.
00:49And judges who aren't afraid to be brutally honest.
00:52No one would wear that outfit.
00:54The dress was a complete mess.
00:57Is that inspiring?
00:58I don't know how to handle this.
00:59Ugh!
01:00I'm not gonna do.
01:01I do not come to look at a bunch of ugly clothes.
01:04This is unwearable.
01:05They're so mean.
01:06It's a new house with new rules.
01:09Alright designers, that's time!
01:10You are still sewing?
01:12Mmm!
01:13I wanna go home.
01:14Are you nuts?
01:15I want this so bad.
01:17Hahaha!
01:18Ah!
01:19I wanna be what's up!
01:21In fashion, one day you're in.
01:25And the next day, you're out.
01:27For 12 designers, this is a chance of a lifetime.
01:31At stake for the winner is $200,000.
01:34Six months of representation from Agent 3 PR.
01:37A spread in Elle magazine.
01:39And a life-changing mentorship with the CFDA.
01:42This is Project Runway.
01:44Ah!
01:45Tell me!
01:46Let me spell it all.
01:47W-O-L.
01:49Let me spell it all.
01:51W-O-L.
01:52Let me spell it all.
01:53W-O-L.
01:54Wow!
01:55Wow!

02:11It's one word.
02:12Joseph McCrae is one word, do not break it up.
02:14First and last together, and that's it.
02:19Uh-oh.
02:20You got a designer and a model.
02:24I'm a tall bitch.
02:32Hey, Ziva.
02:33How are you? I'm Joseph McCrae.
02:34I'm Ethan, but you may recognize me as Utica
02:38from RuPaul's Drag Race.
02:39You think I can eat that?
02:40Yeah, you can cue on it.
02:42Girl, this is Crystals.
02:43Oh, we got another one.
02:45Hey, Ziva.
02:46How are you?
02:47Ethan, nice to meet you.
02:48Vijay.
02:49I'm Joseph McCrae.
02:50Hi, Joseph.
02:51No, no, no, you got to say that first of all.
02:53Hi.
02:54Hold on, Vijay, it's Joseph McCrae.
02:56Okay, Joseph, right?
02:57Joseph McCrae.
02:57Joseph Mac.
02:59McCrae.
02:59McCrae.
03:00Don't even split it.
03:01Okay, Joseph McCrae.
03:02Boom, easy, right?
03:05Hola.
03:06Hola.

03:11Madeline, pleasure.
03:12Hey.
03:13Hola.
03:14Hi.
03:15Bitches, I am back.
03:17Jesus, nice to meet you.
03:19I'm Jesus Estrada from Project Runway season seven.
03:22I'm so excited.
03:24Jesus, we are concerned about your taste level.
03:28I was a baby.
03:28I was 21 years old.
03:30I'm 36 now.
03:31Hola.
03:32Back then, I didn't know who I was as a designer.
03:35Now, coming back, I know my DNA.
03:37I have a very successful business.
03:39So, Heidi has nothing to worry about this time around,
03:43about my taste level.
03:44I'm gonna win, just so you know.
03:46So, I hope you bitches are ready.
03:48Yes.
03:49What is going on?
03:51Girl.
03:51I'm Vijay.
03:52I'm Joan.
03:53Nice to meet you.
03:54Nice to meet you, Joan.
03:55Hey, guys.
03:56Hey, what's up?
03:57Hi.
03:58My name is Yu-chan.
03:59Hi.
04:00Hi.
04:01Hi.
04:02My name is Casey Black.
04:05I was on season 19 of Project Runway,
04:09and I left on episode one.
04:13I'm like, cry laughing.
04:15Casey, you are out.
04:17Being eliminated in the first challenge,
04:19I didn't get to show who I was as a person,
04:22as a designer, as an artist.
04:24So, I'm just hoping to prove who I am.
04:26Hi.
04:27Hi.
04:28Hi.
04:29Oh, my God.
04:30Hey.
04:31Honey, you look like you're ready.
04:33I mean, born ready, baby.
04:35Yes.
04:36Oh, shit, bitch.
04:37Are you guys ready to double the travel?
04:42Is that my twin brother?
04:43Oh, my God.
04:44Oh, my God.
04:45Bitch.
04:46Oh, no to God.
04:47That's my name.
04:48Oh, my God.
04:49There's another one.
04:51The strata did not come to plan.
04:53Let them meet the winner.
04:55Wait, this one's my side, no?
04:59They want me here, though.
05:00You want to tell them that you want this side?
05:02Yeah, that's my side.
05:04Is that going to be a fight?
05:06Hi, I'm Antonio Estrada.
05:07I'm the winner of Project Runway season 21,
05:09and this is the first runner-up.
05:10Bitch.
05:11No, I'm kidding.
05:12What's he on season seven?
05:14No.
05:15Okay.
05:16This is his first time.
05:17It's been 16 years.
05:18We're here.
05:19Yes.
05:20There you go.
05:21I always knew I wanted to do fashion.
05:23It was my dream to be on Project Runway,
05:25not my brother.
05:26My brother went in before me, so.
05:28But I never felt like I was living in his shadow.
05:31I'm talented.
05:33I'm excited to showcase my own creations,
05:35give me my own vision, my own style outside of my brother,
05:38and I'm here to win.
05:40Six, seven, eight.
05:41We're done.
05:42We're done.
05:43We're done.
05:44We're done.
05:45Ah!
05:46There you go!
05:47Ah!
05:48Ah!
05:49Yeah!
05:50Ah!
05:51Ah!
05:52Ah!
05:53Welcome home, Mama!
05:54Yes!
05:55Yes!
05:56Yes!
05:57Designers, welcome to Project Runway.
05:59I can't believe I'm saying this again.
06:01This is so exciting.
06:02I'm your host, Heidi Klum.
06:03Run in line!
06:04Yes!
06:05This is truly a magical place where dreams do come true,
06:10and no one knows this more than the world-renowned designer
06:13and icon next to me, Christian Siriano!
06:20Yes!
06:22I'm good.
06:24So you want to know your first challenge?
06:26Absolutely.
06:27Okay, if you ask any designer where they first fell in love
06:30with fashion, I think one answer comes up more than any other.
06:34The Disney princess.
06:36Ooh!
06:37The princesses have inspired so many designers for decades.
06:42And as you know, behind every powerful princess...
06:46There's something lurking.
06:47Ooh!
06:49The Disney villain.
06:51Yes!
06:53Not only were they scary, but they were fabulously evil.
06:57Okay, designers, we're in a new home with new rules.
07:02So for your first challenge, you will be forming fashion houses.
07:07Woo!
07:08Heidi!
07:09What are you doing to us?
07:10One house will be house of princess, while the other will be the house of villains.
07:16Mwah!
07:17I know.
07:18Please stand on the side that your work is on.
07:21Right here.
07:22Right here.
07:23Oh my god.
07:24Your house is the house of princess.
07:26Okay!
07:27Okay!
07:28I don't want to sew in all black.
07:29Yeah, be neither.
07:30That makes you house of villains.
07:32Each house must create a cohesive collection.
07:36That's C word.
07:37The very first runway show at the Enchanted United Palace.
07:42Ooh!
07:43We only have one day to create this look.
07:47Whew!
07:48You guys have 45 minutes to brainstorm, to sketch, and then you run off to Mood to get your fabric.
07:54Woo!
07:55Oh god, believe it.
07:57I'm so happy to be here, and I can't believe I'm saying this again.
08:00I'll see you on the runway!
08:02Love you, Heidi.
08:07What's happening?
08:10I am having a moment of PTSD because my first challenge in Season 19 was a group challenge.
08:18And now I'm in Season 21, and it's also a group challenge.
08:23I'm getting hives.
08:24I'm sweating.
08:25I'm like having panic attacks.
08:28I cannot be eliminated first.
08:32Not again.
08:37Okay.
08:38Here we go, guys.
08:39Okay.
08:40All right.
08:41Our first challenge is a group challenge.
08:42So we have to sketch and figure out what we're going to have going on so we can bring these princess looks to life.
08:48It is game on.
08:49Let's go.
08:50What's that one thing that can thread all the collection?
08:53I think it's going to come down to the fabric selection.
08:56Fabric.
08:57I definitely got inspired by Ursula.
09:00And since I have a delicious, curvaceous girl as a model, I want to do a powerful suit fit in all the way below the knee and then it's going to go out.
09:10I want to make sure her body looks like snatched.
09:12I think a villain has a good cape.
09:15Yeah.
09:16And if I can switch up the idea of having a cape, would we like that?
09:19Yes.
09:20Yes.
09:21I grew up on a farm.
09:22When I created Utica, it was a conduit for my queer artistic energy because back on the farm, I am the gay community.
09:31I'm the mayor of Queerville.
09:33I mostly do these one-of-a-kind bespoke pieces for my community, but not everybody wants to ready-to-wear drag outfit.
09:42So I'm worried about that.
09:44It could get too costumey if I don't do it right.
09:48Oh.
09:49It has to be cohesive.
09:51We should think of a theme, like a color palette.
09:54I work with my brother 24-7.
09:56So if I can win this for myself, it's proving myself.
10:00I'm excited to intimidate the other designers.
10:03And I'm excited to intimidate my brother.
10:05The color palette is bright.
10:07The fabric that I brought from home, it's literally that fabric, the butterfly, but it's in pink and it has orange-y tones.
10:14The butterflies are blue.
10:17So let's have the inspiration of our collection be butterfly.
10:21Butterfly, yes.
10:23Cool with that?
10:24Yes.
10:25Um, okay.
10:26Butterfly fabric is a beautiful color palette.
10:29Butterfly fabric is not going on my design.
10:32I'm really sorry.
10:33I don't know if it's giving princess.
10:35It's just not my style.
10:37So show me how you do it.
10:39My name is Madeline.
10:40My design point of view is inspired by historical fashion.
10:44I like collars.
10:46I like poofy sleeves.
10:47I like pants.
10:51I got to see this fabric because if it doesn't speak to me, I'm not using, you know.
10:55That's fine.
10:56It's crazy.
10:57We're agreeing to this fabric that we've never seen.
11:00All right, guy.
11:01Here we go.
11:02What do you think?
11:03I am not feeling it.
11:05She's ice cold.
11:07My name is Joan Madison.
11:09I'm years old.
11:11I'm a seasoned designer.
11:13I've worked in the garment industry.
11:15I've owned and operated my own bridal shop for the last 20 years.
11:19So this is my time.
11:21And I'm not here to use basic butterfly fabric.
11:24You know, I'm here to show them who's the queen.
11:27I feel like I want brighter.
11:29I want brighter too.
11:30Yeah.
11:31Yeah.
11:32Antonio's butterfly fabric, it was pretty cool to me.
11:34But I already knew that I was going to do what I wanted to do anyways.
11:37So...
11:38Are you going to pull something from here?
11:41I don't even know.
11:43For me, the butterflies reprincess.
11:46But if they don't yet, they're crazy.
11:49All right, designers, $600 each, 45 minutes to shop.
11:58Okay, go.
12:01Joseph McCrae.
12:02Joseph McCrae, you got to say the first with the last.
12:04Joseph McCrae, you got to say the first with the last.
12:06No, this is too purple.
12:13Everybody's using this print.
12:14No, I'm the only one.
12:16But they all make sense.
12:17We got sequin.
12:18We have velvet.
12:19We've got your print.
12:20We have tulle.
12:21Our team had a plan coming into this.
12:23But now we're running around the store.
12:26Chicken with his head cut off.
12:27I'm like...
12:28And now we've got tweed.
12:30I don't know what's happening.
12:31Carisha, this is 2025, baby.
12:33Okay, I'm...
12:34Listen, I work in 2025.
12:36I'm doing okay.
12:38Come, come, come, come.
12:39Villain team, can I please have you and beat it, please?
12:42We have to have a meeting right now.
12:43I've played this game before, and I think at this point,
12:46I know what it takes, and if someone has to take control,
12:49I think that person's going to be me.
12:51Great idea.
12:52Let's meet and make sure it makes sense together.
12:55I need to get lining, so I'll be back, okay?
12:58Lining?
12:59Lining.
13:00Okay.
13:01Yeah.
13:02Okay.
13:03Vijay is in her own bubble.
13:04She needs to be a team player.
13:06I don't know.
13:07My team is going everywhere, so I haven't been able to get them here.
13:10No meaning.
13:11Hope it looks good.
13:16Fiddling, fiddling.
13:17Here we go!
13:20Did I cut enough?
13:21Can we sing Disney songs?
13:23It's a good thing that's not her day job.
13:37That fabric is gorge.
13:39Take it, take off the file.
13:40Yeah, right?
13:41Don't you think?
13:42Yeah.
13:43That's gorgeous.
13:44I know.
13:45I think so, too.
13:46In season 19, I had a lot of ideas.
13:48It was really hard for me to edit down, and I lost track of time.
13:52I don't want that to happen again.
13:54So, this challenge, I just think Sleeping Beauty and tulle ball gown.
13:59I'm going to play with layers of tulle that I'm pamphleting.
14:03Casey, I remember her from season 19.
14:07Her aesthetic is very, um, loud, and yeah, it's pretty.
14:15Welcome to Project Runway season 21.
14:21My name is Vijay Floresca.
14:23Aside from being a fashion designer, I used to be a beauty queen.
14:30Here's my pageant wave.
14:34I was second runner-up in Project Runway Philippines season 1,
14:38and first runner-up in Dress My Tour.
14:41Being in those competitions will help me to finally win this competition.
14:46No more runner-ups, but to win the competition.
14:50How's it going, Diva?
14:52This one.
14:53This one.
14:54I can't really get a read on Vijay.
14:58This is a team challenge, and you have to be a little receptive to other people's critique and interest in what you're doing.
15:05She really is in her own zone.
15:08And to us, it seems like she's being an asshole.
15:11Let's do it!
15:12Let's get this party.
15:13Party!
15:14Yeah, back to work.
15:15Color palettes coming together.
15:16Yeah.
15:17And that transition couldn't be any more perfect.
15:20I'm feeling like my team is a winning team, and I guess you can call me the team leader, just because they actually fell in love with the fabric that I wanted to use for this challenge.
15:30But you know, I'm a Turner Strata. I can make anyone fall in love with anything.
15:35I think we're doing it, you guys.
15:36I think we're good.
15:37House of Princess. It's a lot of pink, it's a lot of ruffles, and there's some butterflies in there. It's not my flavor. I'm glad I'm not on Team Princess.
15:47Yeah, I hate it as well.
15:48Hey, BJ, how are you doing?
15:49Huh?
15:50I think there's some people in my team that are not being team players. BJ's energy is very stand-offy.
15:53I think we're doing it, you guys.
15:54I think we're doing it, you guys.
15:55I think we're doing it, you guys.
15:56House of Princess.
15:57It's a lot of pink, it's a lot of ruffles, and there's some butterflies in there. It's not my flavor. I'm glad I'm not on Team Princess.
16:01Yeah, I hate it as well.
16:03Hey, BJ, how are you doing?
16:08Huh?
16:09I think there's some people in my team that are not being team players. BJ's energy is very stand-offy.
16:17It's bitchy.
16:19Why you don't have a machine? Where's your machine?
16:22Girl, these are all of our machines.
16:23No, I mean, like, that was the one that I'm using.
16:25Okay, well, I can use it too.
16:26Which one is the one that you were using?
16:28I'm using all of them because we're all using all of them.
16:30I'm almost done.
16:31So you don't have, like, one of them?
16:32No, like, everybody's using all of them. Come on, girl.
16:37You just decide to be lazy and not thread your own machine.
16:41This girl, the fight for the machine begins.
16:44Girl, relax. Like, you don't own the machines.
16:48You're using that thread, honey. I am as well.
16:50So, my bitch better not start.
16:53I don't like that shit.
16:54This is a competition. We're not here to meet friends.
16:58We're here to win this.
16:59And I think maybe Jesus wants to distract me.
17:02I'm not gonna give him that power.
17:04I'm just gonna ignore it.
17:05See, this is my villain law.
17:07Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
17:09You don't want to be in there a bad touch.
17:10No, bitch.
17:16Hello.
17:17Preston!
17:18How are you doing?
17:20There's a lot going on in here.
17:22Yes, it is.
17:26Casey.
17:27Yes.
17:28Hi.
17:29Hi.
17:30We meet again.
17:31I know.
17:32I already need a martini.
17:33All right.
17:34She's like a cake dress and the flowers.
17:36She's a cake.
17:37I'm just thinking, you know, there's ways to make this feel a bit more modern and cool.
17:43Okay.
17:44Like, maybe this tool is in here and it's more of a tool overlay somewhere.
17:49The proportions and the fit will be important here.
17:52Yeah.
17:53The waist.
17:54Okay.
17:55For sure.
17:56There's just so many things you could do to make this feel really cool and interesting.
17:58Oh, no.
17:59I have done a waist like this before and I love asymmetrical.
18:03I do a lot of asymmetrical.
18:04So, I don't want to give that up.
18:07I think it's going to be gorgeous.
18:09Okay.
18:10Good luck.
18:13Wow.
18:14This is a little number.
18:16The Joseph McCray puffer.
18:18Beautiful shape.
18:19I like to play with shape a lot.
18:20Yeah.
18:21I have a degree in electrical engineering.
18:22I think the engineering has very heavily influenced my design aesthetic.
18:26And you look at the structure and you look at the like silhouettes.
18:28So, I'm going to create a mean puffer jacket along with a wrap satin skirt in this midnight
18:35periwinkle upholstery fabric.
18:37People may not directly relate it to a princess, but listen, every princess needs a jacket.
18:41I'm feeling low key Tinkerbell for real, for real.
18:43Making these cohesive is still part of the challenge.
18:46Don't just make a fabulous look for you.
18:49I know you don't want to listen.
18:50This is a skin situation, but...
18:52Wait, that's all out?
18:54No, it's not.
18:55Wait.
18:56Wait.
18:57This is Disney.
18:59I know.
19:00I know.
19:01Where are my pearls?
19:06Antonio, what is happening over here?
19:09So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to do this bubble dress, lace up in the back.
19:12And then I want to do a coat over it with these two different colored tools all over the coat.
19:18So, it will be like a reveal.
19:20You're making kind of two dresses that you might not finish.
19:25Why can't this piece just be the moment?
19:27But this one's done already.
19:28I'm just waiting for my model.
19:29It's done because literally, like, my intern could sew that in 30 minutes.
19:34Like, that's not hard.
19:37What?
19:38What the ?
19:39Don't lose it completely.
19:40But like, what else could this be?
19:42Could it have sculpture?
19:43Could it have some other element that anyone else has?
19:46Something's got to be cohesive.
19:48Like, don't you think the butterfly thing is because of you, right?
19:52Yeah.
19:53Okay.
19:54So, then you got to be amazing.
19:56I won't let you down.
19:58I feel like he kind of just, like, slapped me in the face.
20:01He was like, my intern can make that in 30 minutes.
20:04I'm like, okay.
20:05I'm a Gemini.
20:06I don't take critiques.
20:07I take critiques very, like, don't tell me what to do.
20:10But I'm going to step it up.
20:12Step me up.
20:13No.
20:18Yuchun, what is your work normally like?
20:20My work is more, like, very futuristic.
20:22Okay.
20:23Very agile and very avant-garde.
20:25So, I think you should do that.
20:27Because this doesn't feel very futuristic.
20:29Okay.
20:30It doesn't feel that avant-garde.
20:31To be honest, I haven't made garments like this before.
20:34For my brand, I always like, you know, making ready to wear.
20:36It's always very futuristic.
20:38It's very powerful.
20:39I'm here to challenge myself.
20:41My inspiration for this look is from Taka.
20:44So, I'm making this, like, tulle and lace dress with flowers and veins growing all over.
20:50And this is a veil.
20:52Please don't be ugly.
20:53Okay.
20:54Thank you, Christian.
20:55Jesus.
20:56Yes.
20:57What's happening?
20:58I'm basically doing a powerful coat dress.
21:00All right.
21:01I also have another dress underneath.
21:03Right.
21:04So, I think the challenge for you is how to make this feel more fashion.
21:09Like, something forward-thinking.
21:11I know in my head how the final product's gonna look.
21:15And I think it's elegant.
21:16Now, it's about how to make this feel, like, really modern.
21:20You know?
21:21Yeah, yeah.
21:22Okay.
21:23I would love a tour of the brain.
21:26Well, we know that a villain loves a cape.
21:29I'm doing my version of a cape, where the cape is gonna connect to the top of the head.
21:35Love it.
21:36And then clean, simple, classic underneath.
21:40Mm-hmm.
21:41So, this is a pant and a top.
21:42Yep.
21:43Pant and a top.
21:44Then the twist.
21:45Oh, I love a twist.
21:46I will pattern in a curved glove pattern.
21:49I don't think they want it to feel too costumy.
21:52So, I do think that that is important with your look.
21:57Because you have such a dramatic moment.
21:59Try not to get in my head about it.
22:01I'm used to grand, drag on the stage.
22:05So, I am trying to edit.
22:08How's the team going?
22:10We've got some independent creatures.
22:12We do, of course.
22:13On our team.
22:14We have a bitchy one in here.
22:15You have an assassin one?
22:16Yeah.
22:17Ooh.
22:18This thing over there in the corner.
22:19Ooh.
22:20Vijay?
22:21Oh, yeah.
22:22She's what we call in the business.
22:24A .
22:25Mm-hmm.
22:26Interesting.
22:27Wow.
22:28I don't think there's a problem with being a little .
22:31But when it's your own team, come on.
22:33We just have a rectangle and fabric draped on the mannequin.
22:37I don't know what, like, the vibe is.
22:39You have four more hours to finish everything.
22:42And then you will be sending your models to the Ulta Beauty Salon.
22:45And I'll see you guys in a little bit for model fittings.
22:48Don't turn into a pumpkin.
22:50Bye.
22:51Bye.
22:53We are meeting right now.
22:55I think the House of Villains didn't get enough great feedback from Christian Soriano.
23:00So I must demand a team meeting right now because I cannot go home on the first challenge.
23:05Let's step back.
23:06It doesn't look cohesive.
23:09We need to add an element.
23:11I think the cohesiveness is all but the flowers that we have.
23:14It is floral, right?
23:15You're also the only one with lace, so we have to incorporate lace somewhere.
23:19I don't have more lace at all.
23:21You need to cut a little piece, so it needs to be cohesive.
23:24Have you ever made a collection?
23:26Yeah.
23:27Being cohesive is making it that it looks like it's from the same collection and same design.
23:33I know, but why lace?
23:34No one has lace.
23:35That's what I'm saying.
23:36No one has this leather.
23:37No one has this velvet.
23:38I'm adding velvet on mine.
23:40I'm adding your flower as well.
23:42Mr. Yushin, this is a team challenge.
23:44I'm not meaning taking his lace to, like, sabotage him.
23:47I'm just trying to do the best that I can.
23:49For the red, I mean, it's beautiful, but it seems like we don't have red for any other looks.
23:53Yeah, I think if you do, like, a red top of color.
23:56I also, I'm very competitive in there.
23:57I want an old black.
23:58I don't really understand why I have to devote my lace.
24:01Why he's doing this to me?
24:03Well, he's the biggest problem in the team.
24:06I'm just saying, if we want to make the collection cohesive, you're the only one with lace.
24:12Wow, Yushin, he's definitely being a little shady bitch.
24:16If you're not here to be a team player, there's going to be a problem throughout this whole competition.
24:23Today's the first runway, and I'm just so scared what's going to happen.
24:29Not myself, but for other designers.
24:32She's part of team villains, so it's just slicked back.
24:36I want something like, you know, crying, smoky.
24:38Okay, thank you.
24:39You stand right here.
24:41This is great.
24:42Look at the proportions.
24:43Look at, you can't see her waist.
24:44You've got nothing.
24:45I'm not going to make her look like a pinata.
24:47But that's kind of what it looks like.
24:49Oh, my God.
24:50I'm running out of time, and then I have to do a belt for this coat dress.
24:54I didn't want to have her looking like a loofah.
24:56Silence!
24:57Come to the model!
25:04Where's the model?
25:05Oh, my God.
25:06This is more stressful than Cinderella at the ball.
25:09You are still sewing?
25:10No.
25:11This one, like...
25:12Mmm.
25:13Doing, Heidi, in three, two...
25:19Hi, everybody!
25:20Hi!
25:21Woo!
25:22All right, designers.
25:24That's it.
25:25That's time.
25:26You are coming.
25:27Come on.
25:28Please meet our project runway judges.
25:30My longtime friend, editor-in-chief of Elle magazine, Nina Garcia.
25:34Woo!
25:35Serious.
25:36Baby, that woman is powerful.
25:39I hope Nina Garcia sees my look, and she, like, sees me in my princess.
25:44The FDA award-winning stylist and image architect, La Roche.
25:51I'm thrilled.
25:52La Roche, incredible celebrity stylist.
25:55He's worked with Zendaya.
25:57La Roche can tear me a new one whenever the man wants, okay?
26:01And please meet again our mentor, Christian Siriano.
26:05Welcome to our first show of the season of Project Runway.
26:09As you know, in fashion, one day you're in, and the next day, you're out.
26:13And in my case, you're back in again.
26:18For our first challenge, our designers formed Fashion Houses.
26:22Two teams of six designers creating cohesive collections
26:26inspired by Disney princesses or Disney villains.
26:30Let's start the show!
26:41I feel so confident.
26:42This dress is really giving me a vibe of cool, modern.
26:47I would walk out of here with that, happy.
26:49I'm telling you, that girl is a villain.
26:53You can wear it now.
26:54It's not so costumy.
26:55I think it's beautiful.
26:56I'm a wizard gonna pull an ace.
26:59Seeing my look go down the runway, I'm really happy.
27:02I'm proud of it.
27:06Just to see the scarf dragging, so it gave some kind of sense of elegance and dramatic effect.
27:11The shape of my gown looks so clean and elegant.
27:17I love the way the light hits the velvet.
27:20The collar is exciting.
27:23It gives drama.
27:24It's very well, too.
27:25It's beautiful.
27:26I couldn't be more pleased that this is the first piece that the judges see from me.
27:32I am so happy.
27:35She's giving me a villain vibe.
27:38The leather is moving.
27:40The pants is well made, perfectly tailored for her.
27:44It's like, I'm so speechless.
27:47Wow.
27:48I'm pinching myself, seeing my look going down the runway.
27:51It's perfect, chic, and I feel like she looks like the villain.
27:57Don't put your curse on me.
27:58I know.
28:07This look is the magnum opus of my mix between grand and sophisticated.
28:12Look at the detail of the gloves.
28:14They're so witchy.
28:16It's harnessing wind, and it just feels like I have created something that is truly special.
28:24I hope that they get a good meal from what I'm serving.
28:28Yes!
28:35I feel the Joseph McCray princess grace in the space.
28:38I just cannot take my eyes off of my girl, because she is so beautiful.
28:44And I did that.
28:45Did you say a daytime princess?
28:46Daytime.
28:47She's going to lunch.
28:52I think it looks cute.
28:53I think she looks good.
28:55I feel good, actually.
28:56I just am not the kind of person to be like, oh, my God.
29:00Whoever did this knows how to sew.
29:02The construction is really great.
29:04When my model walks down the runway, it's definitely giving modern Jasmine for sure.
29:10And I see emotions being provoked when she's walking, and that's what I want.
29:15So I'm feeling confident about my look. It's a vibe.
29:17I'm feeling emotional and happy of the work.
29:22Seeing my model in my beautiful butterfly fabric that I brought from home makes me feel so nurtured, love, and accomplished.
29:31Is that camouflage?
29:33It's like a butterfly print.
29:34She is just floating in my gown, and it's exactly the feeling I wanted.
29:45It is modern princess feeling.
29:49I love how the tool floats.
29:51It's like a little dance happening on the fabric.
29:54I feel very proud.
29:55Seeing my princess slash queen's garment, whew, I think she definitely owned the space.
30:05I knew that it was over.
30:10Designers, congratulations.
30:12That was a very special first show.
30:14Well done.
30:16Now we have to see which house has a fairytale ending, and which one just ends.
30:22My heart is racing, and I love my look.
30:25I'm sure the judges want to see more of me.
30:27I mean, what is there not to love of Antonio, right?
30:30But you never know. It's anyone's game.
30:38Welcome to your home away from home, the runway.
30:41Amazing. Yes.
30:43This was a great first challenge.
30:45And applause to all of you guys, because really everyone did a great job.
30:48But we're going to start nitpicking now.
30:52Yeah.
30:54We have scored your designs, and only one house has risen to the top.
30:59The best look will come from the winning house, while the eliminated designer will come from the losing house.
31:06The winning house for this challenge is...
31:11House of Villains.
31:12House of Villains.
31:17This team was a hard one to work with.
31:20But we won. We won.
31:22We did it!
31:24Congratulations.
31:26Unfortunately, that means House of Princes, you were the losing house.
31:30You can leave the runway. We'll talk to you later.
31:35Oh, my God.
31:36I didn't think I belong here. I am shocked.
31:42What just happened?
31:44This feels horrible.
31:46Oh.
31:48So, congratulations. You guys are winning a house.
31:52Your clothes really spoke to the challenge, but also did in a way that felt really modern, that separated you from the other team.
31:59Your collection, at least, looked cohesive.
32:06All right. Let's talk to the top three of our favorite looks.
32:11Ethan.
32:13Ta-da!
32:15We also love Yu-Chin.
32:20And we had a little bit of a debate over the third spot.
32:26It is Jesus.
32:30Yes!
32:32Alex.
32:33Angelo.
32:34BJ.
32:35You're safe.
32:36And you can leave the runway.
32:37Thank you so much.
32:39Thank you, baby. Thank you.
32:41Thank you, guys.
32:42All right.
32:43Let's bring out your models.
32:47You were our three favorite looks tonight.
32:50All right, Yu-Chin.
32:51Let's talk about your looks.
32:53To me, this is now.
32:54I love this, especially now.
32:55Everything is about sheer.
32:56And so I feel like you're right on what's happening right now.
32:59And she looks beautiful.
33:01I would wear this, too.
33:02Gorgeous.
33:03I really like your dress.
33:04It's young.
33:05It's sexy.
33:06It's gothic.
33:07It's evil.
33:08I can definitely see Jenna Ortega in this dress at a premiere of Wednesday Addams.
33:14A slight change.
33:15I would have switched the styling with the boots.
33:17But I think it is a really, really great dress.
33:19And I think it is very commercial.
33:22The flower in the back is curious, but I love the ruching that you did on the bodice.
33:28If we change this black into pink, you could be in the princess.
33:33Yeah.
33:35I'm versatile.
33:36All right.
33:37Oh, me too.
33:41Ethan, we're going to talk to you next.
33:43Hello, distinguished panel of judges.
33:45Okay.
33:47Your model is actually quite petite.
33:50However, she felt grandiose.
33:53It was like this dark shadow had just slithered through this stage.
33:58It wasn't just the clothes.
34:00It was a feeling.
34:02The construction was really, really good.
34:04The velvet was a great idea.
34:06Velvet always looked so rich.
34:08There was a little things that I noticed on the cape.
34:11There was a scene that I wish I didn't see.
34:14And a little bit of the hem is puckering, but you did such a beautiful job.
34:18Bravo, my love.
34:19It's giving me villain, but it's not giving me costume.
34:22I feel like if you don't have this cape on, you wear this jumpsuit underneath.
34:25It's like modern.
34:26It's cool.
34:27I would want to wear it.
34:28I love the nails because this little detail, I was like, yes.
34:33And she looks stunning.
34:35All right, Jesus.
34:38Jesus, it's so lovely to see you again.
34:41It was bold of you to choose a color when everybody else stuck to black.
34:47I think that's why you're up here is because in a sea of black,
34:51to have this fabrication that feels really rich and really luxe was really important.
34:55For me, it was very important to make her feel sexy.
34:59And I think that I embody that.
35:01I love the coat.
35:02I think it's fabulous.
35:03I hated it.
35:05I was the only one.
35:06I was out judged.
35:07Hate is such a big word.
35:09It's a short word.
35:10It's only four letters.
35:12I'm sorry if you hate the coat.
35:15I hate the whole look.
35:19Aw, don't get emotional.
35:22We liked it.
35:24I love how your model looks.
35:26She feels regal.
35:28We need ambitious designers.
35:30Yes.
35:31Guys, I have to disagree with everything Nina said.
35:35To me, she doesn't look cool.
35:37She doesn't look young.
35:38She looks like a Nigerian auntie.
35:41I have clients of all different sizes, ages.
35:44And one thing you have to care about is the placement of the breast.
35:49Then you could have done something to lift the breast a little bit more.
35:53If you're going to say that you want to make a curvy woman feel beautiful and powerful and all those things,
35:58do you have to do it in your design?
36:01Does anyone disagree with any of that?
36:03Yeah.
36:04A lot of the times, I feel like designers put a curvy girl into something so loose that we can't see the beautiful curves.
36:11Then I think you look beautiful.
36:13Okay.
36:14All right.
36:15Now it's time to name our winner.
36:26Congratulations, Ethan.
36:28You are the winner of this challenge.
36:30Yes.
36:31Shut up.
36:33Crown me, baby.
36:34Because the queen is on top this week.
36:39Yurika won.
36:40Yes.
36:41Yes.
36:42Ethan.
36:43Ethan.
36:44Ethan.
36:45Ethan.
36:46Ethan.
36:47Ah.
36:48Feels right.
36:49La Roche was rocked.
36:51I'm so shocked right now.
36:53Shocked.
36:54Shocked.
36:55Shocked.
36:56It feels like I'm not on the top.
36:57Even though I should be celebrating being on the top, I feel a little attacked.
37:02I'm gagged.
37:03But, and I think it's very critical for me moving forward to really listen to what the judges have
37:09to say.
37:10All I have to do is prove him wrong.
37:12What was the feedback for yours?
37:13What did they have to say?
37:14Oh, good.
37:15Yeah?
37:16And does it really get some like, you know, very good advices, you know?
37:19But my advice to you is through this challenge, like, every time I would be like, oh, can we
37:24do this?
37:25You're like, no, no, no.
37:26Just, sometimes you do have, sometimes you have to listen.
37:29But girl, I have to say what I'm saying.
37:32So, remember you talking about my lace?
37:34You're saying everyone take a piece of the lace.
37:36Did I say that?
37:37Everybody take a piece of his lace?
37:39We have the camera on there.
37:40Okay, bro.
37:41It was a team challenge and that was just a request.
37:44I know.
37:45I have my own opinion.
37:46I'm a very mature designer.
37:47So, nobody needs to tell me anything unless I want to take it.
37:50Okay?
37:51You're getting really offended.
37:53Really is throwing me off.
37:55Alright, alright, alright.
37:56Like seriously?
37:57You know what you're doing, girl.
37:58No, I don't know what I'm doing.
37:59Shut up.
38:00I don't know what I'm doing.
38:01You know.
38:02No.
38:03You know, mm-mm.
38:04Child.
38:07Alright, let's bring out House of Princess.
38:14House of Princess, you made our least favorite collection.
38:18It was not cohesive.
38:19Unfortunately, there were three looks that were less Disney and more dismal.
38:25Balania.
38:26Balania.
38:27Madeline.
38:28Joan.
38:29You're safe and you can leave the runway.
38:32Thank you so much.
38:34Whoo!
38:35Whoo!
38:36Unfortunately, that means Casey, Joseph, and Antonio.
38:46He had the three bottom looks.
38:47Am I being punk?
38:48Am I being punk?
38:49No.
38:50Okay.
38:51All right, let's bring out your models.
38:53Joseph, we're gonna start with you first.
38:54Like, I did not see the inspo.
38:55I knew that that was you.
38:56But I just don't get Princess from this thing.
38:57I wish that you would've picked a lady.
39:02Okay.
39:05All right, let's bring out your models.
39:14Joseph, we're gonna start with you first.
39:16Like, I did not see the inspo.
39:18I knew that that was you,
39:19but I just don't get princess from this thing.
39:22I wish that you would have picked a lady.
39:24You have volume, but then you have her wrapped up
39:29in this skirt that seems to be strangling her.
39:33It's a question of proportions.
39:35You're playing with too many.
39:37I disagree.
39:38I enjoy the way you play with proportions.
39:41I like the coat.
39:42He popped that coat off
39:43and it was a sweetheart bodice dress.
39:44But it isn't.
39:45I like it.
39:46I think she's looked really cool.
39:48I can see some of my clients wearing this.
39:50To me-
39:51We agreed to disagree.
39:52Yeah, we agreed to disagree.
39:55Can she turn around?
39:57Yeah.
39:59Now the back isn't great.
40:00This is not, I'm sorry.
40:02The back is a couch cushion.
40:04Okay, Antonio.
40:05If you had asked ChatGBT to help you make
40:08a John Batista Vali for $100,
40:10then that's what that look was.
40:13After Christian's critiques,
40:15I did change my look a few times.
40:17And there is another dress underneath.
40:20Is the dress still underneath?
40:21I don't know.
40:22Let's see it.
40:23Let's see it, yeah.
40:24Well, Christian told me his intern
40:25can make that dress in 30 minutes.
40:27Oh, you're blaming everything on Christian.
40:29I just think this dress underneath,
40:31an intern could make it in 30 minutes.
40:32It's a tube dress.
40:34You couldn't have shown that by itself.
40:35But you know, why didn't you let it be open?
40:38I don't know why you put the belt on it.
40:40I didn't know you were gonna cover up
40:42the butterflies completely.
40:43It's better this way.
40:44Yeah, because with that cute little mini dress under it,
40:47at least you see her body.
40:49It's charming.
40:49Oh, thank you.
40:50This is not how we saw it.
40:52She just looked like a big loofah.
40:54When Christian was criticized,
40:55I was like, don't think it's gonna be a piñata.
40:57Stop blaming it on Christian.
40:59You're here now.
40:59No, I'm not blaming Christian.
41:00I wrote, he knows.
41:02I'm a Gemini and I don't like people tell me what to do.
41:06And I was like, you're an adult.
41:08You're gonna listen to Christian.
41:09He's here for a reason.
41:10He's your mentor.
41:10And I did listen to him.
41:11And that's why I changed my look three times.
41:13And you know, you pushed me to be better.
41:15The inspo of the butterfly comes from which princess?
41:19Which princess?
41:20I mean, every princess.
41:22Antonio, but you're being so defensive.
41:25No, I'm not.
41:26We're just trying to understand your work.
41:27No, I'm trying to explain myself.
41:28I'm sorry if I'm coming out.
41:29Right.
41:30But I don't think there's any reason to be defensive.
41:31No, I'm not being defensive at all.
41:32I'm just explaining myself.
41:33Sorry if I'm coming out.
41:34No, I think Nina's right to call that out.
41:36I think you are being defensive and also a little bit rude.
41:40It's OK to be criticized and to be, and to be, and to be,
41:44and to be, you know, let down by the criticism,
41:49but to kind of like throw it back.
41:51Your response has really been really quite nasty.
41:54I'm just letting you know.
41:55OK.
41:56One girl to another.
41:57Maybe it's my Latina side.
41:58Maybe.
42:03Next.
42:05Casey, let's talk about your look.
42:07I really love this Jacquard.
42:10And I wish that all this other stuff would disappear.
42:15I don't know.
42:16To me, it looks like a nightgown.
42:17You know, it's very luck-luster in terms of, like, shape and everything.
42:21And what you then wrapped around, to me, looks like an afterthought.
42:25Can she turn around?
42:26Yes.
42:27The ribbon is what I hated.
42:28Yeah.
42:29Yeah.
42:30100%.
42:31I want to see, like, more design.
42:33Is that inspiring?
42:34I love the deep plunge.
42:36I just think it was a miss, because you had everything to make something so beautiful and so fairytale-like, and you kind of missed it.
42:46I hear you.
42:47All right, designers, we have to make a decision.
42:50You can leave the runway.
42:57This is so much fun.
42:58I love this y'all.
43:00Yeah, well, I can tell.
43:03I don't know if they're going to make it out alive at the end.
43:08Can you see?
43:09What's happening?
43:10You're good.
43:11You're fine.
43:12You're fine.
43:13You're so good to draw.
43:14I know.
43:15I hate that.
43:17I guess we can all agree that Joseph is not going home, right?
43:21There's so much going on, but the color was really beautiful.
43:25The combination of fabrics were very wonderful.
43:28He's like, I'm making what I make.
43:30Couches.
43:32Casey, Nina, what did you think?
43:34The dress was a complete mess.
43:36It was horrible.
43:37And boring, too.
43:38It literally, like, she took a staple gun.
43:40It was just like...
43:41No, it was awful.
43:42I'm an adult, and I'm going to take criticism.
43:44But, bitch, when you're putting words in my mouth, like...
43:46Antonio, blah, what were your thoughts?
43:48That dress, when he opened it up, was really cute.
43:50Like 30 minutes to make that dress.
43:52Yeah, but the coat made...
43:53I like that it was a coat.
43:54I know.
43:55But what if he didn't have that coat?
43:56Yeah.
43:57No, he needed that kind.
43:58I know.
43:59He's like, whoa, your attitude.
44:00I'm like, oh, bitch.
44:01That attitude is so bad.
44:04Then he said, it's probably just the Latina in me.
44:07Girl.
44:08I was like, yeah, all right.
44:10That's not an excuse.
44:11Don't with my knee now, baby.
44:13Yeah.
44:14You could be very talented, but if you have a bad attitude, and you can't work with others
44:19in this industry, we have seen it.
44:22Bad attitude is a problem.
44:25I'm so proud of myself.
44:28It's just very emotional, you know, and intense.
44:32Like, it's just intense.
44:35I just feel like I'm in shock a bit right now.
44:39Like, I actually really loved my dress.
44:42Being in this position again.
44:44I never thought I'd be in the bottom three.
44:46At this stage of the competition again, like, after being eliminated on episode one of another season,
44:51like, it just feels like a bad joke.
44:53I don't want to go home.
44:58They're so mean.
45:00I'm like, no.
45:01Why am I here?
45:03I didn't think my design was the worst.
45:06But being in the bottom three, I feel, like, shattered.
45:09Do I really need to be here?
45:10Do I really need this?
45:12It's like, let's just go home.
45:14So do we send home the bad dress or the bad attitude?
